clean infrastructure, about any of these issues on a change in the way we finance campaigns.
I think we're going to figure out how people feel about AI more and more in the next few years.
And almost no matter how much money they put up against Alex Boris or whomever, if AI turns out to be wildly unpopular, they're going to have a problem.
Other people have used this word.
And this is my prediction.
It'll be an age of abundance for everyone.
In the moment of every new technological transformation, we have had some notion, some dream that maybe we could have less work and more leisure for the same income.
And in most cases, it's part of the American DNA to use the extra time to do more work, right?
I think, you know, Keynes famously expected that we would be spending less time at work
We'd be at our 15-hour work week by now.
We have taken time back.
I suspect that we are going to find, with the rise of China, with the enormous...
challenges that we face and the various new technologies that we have in other realms, that there's going to be a demand for speedy progress on all sorts of other issues.
And those who want to spend time doing that are going to spend all week and all weekend working on those challenges.
So I'm less sanguine that we're going to have less time.
I mean, I think what's so interesting about Derek's
analysis of what happened with GLPs is that in situations like warp speed, we have clear delineations of who makes decisions.
We are empowering people to take chances, to make enormously consequential decisions about where money goes and to try things quickly.
That is exactly what we don't have in these other realms of abundance.
It is very hard to figure out who makes the decision about where the transmission line's gonna go, how we're going to build the new transit line, where the housing's going to go.
